ASX advises Participants that the Final Settlement Price used to settle the New Zealand Bank Bill December 16 (BBNZ16) futures contract on the 14th of Dec 2016 was incorrectly set at 97.97 in the Genium Clearing system.

The correct settlement price is 97.96.

The underlying cause of the incorrect price being utilized was technical and related to the re-publication of the price on the morning of expiry.

Participants that held open positions in the BBZ16 contract at the time of expiry had those positions closed using the incorrect 97.97 price.

ASX will be passing cash adjustments today for the difference between the incorrect and correct settlement prices and will be sending details of those adjustments to the relevant Participants.

What do I need to do by when?

Affected Participants should refer to the email notification sent with details of the adjustments that have been made today.
